Description: "Crystallography has become the keystone of rational pharmacology, protein engineering, structural genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, and nanotechnology. By growing molecules in three-dimensional crystal forms, researchers can determine precise molecular structure, leading to major advances in biotechnology applications such as improved drugs and crops.

Introduction to Macromolecular Crystallography provides a comprehensive, approachable summary of the field of crystallography, from the fundamental theory of diffraction and properties of crystals to applications in determining macromolecular structure.".

"Biochemists, molecular biologists, and pharmacological scientists, as well as advanced undergraduate and graduate students in molecular and cell biology, biochemistry, and biophysics, will find introduction to Macromolecular Crystallography an invaluable introduction to this pivotal field."--BOOK JACKET.
